Here is an output file I created using this SORT :

SORT FIELDS=(37,8,CH,A,47,8,BI,A)

(the first part of sorting by the module named worked in column 37)

Select all

----+----1----+----2----+----3----+----4----+----5----+----6----+----7----+----8----+----9--
TCPSVT 000F 473C90DA 4 EZACFMMN 000AA0DA 590040045880 C R0,4(,R4)

TCPSVT 000F 473B7282 5 EZACFMMN 00098282 590040045860 C R0,4(,R4)

However, its not completely what I want, I'd also like the data in column 47 to be sorted in order of the
address entrypoint like this:(ie. the first (000018AA) entry at the top, etc. )

Select all

"Code'd"

Can someone tell a DFSORT beginner how to accomplish this? (sorry about the formatting)
thanks,
Len

You can use DFSORT's AC format to handle that:

Select all

SORT FIELDS=(37,8,CH,A,47,8,AC,A)
